Reddish and huerter are nowhere near shai’s value.


I was saying Collins, Huerter, Hunter, and Reddish are better than Maledon, Poku and Bazley. You wouldn’t tak some combination of those 4 plus picks?

The point of the counter offer wasn’t that players are equal but at this point in time it’s not worth it for okc. We aren’t selling off players on rookie contracts, especially shai. Okc could make a great offer for trae but Atlanta likely isn’t interested. Even if the value is fair, the timing is off.

collins is going to be tricky to retain for a fair price. trickier than shai will be, probably. i don't want to touch him.

He's just tweeting because he's upset at the Adams trade.

At what point is it better to take a chance on a guy like that and overpay him than get another Al Horford with a late frp attached? It’s not uncommon that guys get a big contract they don’t quite deserve and then continue to develop.

I saw someone say Prest should be subject to an anti-Stepien rule.

it makes sense but Charlotte will probably give Noel a 60 millions / 3 years contract

I've moved seamlessly from being understanding of people being bummed that Adams is gone to being annoyed at cheesy articles about how crushed fans are that are already popping up from the likes of Barry Trammel.

The Oklahoman putting up a paywall was a blessing in disguise. People say they wanted Adams to be the next nick collison. Maybe he didn’t want to stay here on a sucky team for the next 4-5 years?

I pay an athletic subscription yearly just so I don't have to read anything trammel writes.

we could easily rope charlotte into the oubre trade to clear some salary from them at a price.

The athletic as a whole is great. I’m beginning to wonder if Horne is working a second job. We don’t get many articles lately.

I've often wondered if the Thunder don't get the draft position they want that they trade Shai along with some of their picks to get who they want.

it's getting to the point where I find myself annoyed if other teams are doing something and we aren't somehow getting a pick out of it.
